They also pick out the positives of United's 4-3 loss away at Brentford, and Nik reviews a day out at Old Trafford watching Manchester United Women qualify for the Champions League.

I think Usyk is edging ahead now.
Usyk is taking over, Joshua needs to turn this into a slugfest, he can't outbox usyk.
AJ tiring now
5-2 Usyk.
That was a poor round for AJ.
Usyk's controlling it
Fighting in Saudi at this time of year is mad
Canvas cleanage
fecking canvas
Might be in the minority here but I feel Sky are going a bit over the top with the Usyk praise here.
AJs right eye is starting to swell up
Not easy to score but Usyk looks to be on top. AJ needs to take more risks.
Usyk caught him well there here and there.
Joshua seems to have the wrong game plan.

Think Joshua is fighting too much of Usyks fight, he needs to cut off the ring to pressure Usyk. I think Usyk vs Fury is a good prospect I reckon Fury goes for the knockout.
Much better from AJ in this fight but he really needs to start using his size and just bully Usyk, right now he’s getting outboxed again even though he’s doing way better than last time
needs a KO imo

Really? Literally everything Joshua does is being bigged up.
Ref just helped Joshua from falling 
Usyk starting to pull ahead. It's a hard fight to score as Usyk is landing a lot more clean, but a lot of his punches seem to be bouncing off AJ. Some good power punches from AJ but I have Usyk up 2 rounds so far
5-3. AJ won that one.
Better round for AJ there.
5-3 Usyk
Feels like the opposite way round to me! Before this round they said they gave Joshua just one round so far.
Better performance but same gameplay from AJ. Makes no sense
4-4
That was better. He just has to be more aggressive. He simply has to be. He looks like he's always operating under some risk management control protocol.
Better round 8 from Joshua but he needs to sustain his attacks.
No way
Usyk is tired
I agree but I just don't think AJ has the grit to fight a rough fight after Ruiz 1. You cannot dance with Usyk have to have no respect for him.
Wouldn't shock me if at least 2 judges see it that way
Joshua finally put a few punches together and clearly hurt Usyk, who's clearly enjoying this fight a lot less than the first one.
He's still too slow to follow up when he does land. His only hope that those body shots accumulate and slow Usyk down, not long left for that to happen though.

Better round from Joshua, but, if it goes the distance, Usyk will win this.
how is it every single stream for this is failing? =/
Rabbit punches from AJ
Could have been a 10-8 round
He's back in it!!
He's back in it!!

Let him off!!!
Joshua winning
5-4
Usyk feeling those body shots from the last round. AJ needs to smell blood here.
